I was wondering about that as well.. do these ships have a special sea detail while transiting? we always had a full crew forward and aft, in the emergency steering room, etc.. I do wonder how long they would have had to drop the anchor, it catch, etc.. I do imagine they have a LOT of anchor chain though..
